By endorsing Trump, Elon Musk is gambling with Tesla’s future

Not really. He’s been piloting it into a steep dive for awhile now.
- Let's give him another 50 cool billion, surely that will motivate him to take it all the way to Mars, baby!
  
  Mars was a year away in what, 2019? At this point I've lost track of all the things he can do now, or that's just a year away, yet still somehow hasn't materialised. It's almost like he's an immoral, fraudulent grifter. Makes sense he'd endorse another of his kind. Birds of a feather, xitter together.

He cares for Tesla about as much as he cares for his 18 children
- excuse me, my parents said that it was gavin newsom who broke up his family☝️
  
  and is this gavin newsom currently in the room with us...?

Fuck musk, fuck trump, fuck tsla.
- Can we add fuck Nestle to that list?
  
  Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !fucknestle@lemmy.world

Imagine donating to the guy who wants to cripple your business. Then again Elon got his bag so...
- Or, he thinks Tesla can succeed without heavy government mandates in its favor.

45 million a month I'm sure he's going to be fine. Unless you think Trump's the kind of guy who's so principled he won't carve out exceptions for his rich friends. But if you think that I don't know where the fuck you were for four years

You really think Donald Trump would do that? Just betray a supporter the second it's convenient? /s

I unfortunately bought in a few years ago when he was not so fucking crazy. My next car is going to be a Rivian R3X. That thing is fire and I'm happy I don't know a damn thing about RJ Scaringe.
- I sold mine and switched back to ICE. Maybe I was able to prevent one more new purchase.
  
  Why switch back to ice? There are so many other compelling alternatives, now.

If the convicted felon really cares about Elon, he should do the right thing: keep the money and drop out of the race.

It doesn't matter. He personally has enough money to live a thousand lifetimes in unbelievable luxury, and he doesn't care about anyone else. He could lose 99% of all his money and still have $1,760,000,000.00. People truly do not grasp the ridiculousness of his wealth, because it is an unknowable number.
